Abstract
Olga says that the temple that belonged to her clan was destroyed by the Reds during the revolution. It was such a spacious temple that it could fit people from all the 13 Buzava stanitsas/villages around. All the objects inside the temple were looted, and the majority of the monks were imprisoned for ten years. Olga keeps a silver lamp that belonged to one of the monks. She also had an amulet, but it was stolen from her some time ago.
